Newbie Questions: Proper Installation of Mods + Dragable Stopwatch

Ahoi Kammeraden!

I got a few questions, being a newb.

"Proper" Installation"

I assume there's several ways to properly install the game and mods, but maybe you can give me a recommended order for people who want to install several mods.

I installed both SH3 Commander and JSGME, but ultimately was to scared to screw something up, so I didn't use them. Instead I just did (Win 7 53bit):

install SH3 from CDROM + Apply 1.4b patch
install GWX 3 Final
install Ahnenerbe Final
---
I recon a proper Install is something like 1. Game 2. patches 3. MegaMod (GWX) 4. some utility to install further small mods, but not sure about this exactly...

I've been watching the gameplay of Wolfpack345 on youtube and really want to install many of the mods he uses, but as I said, I'm too scared to do so without knowing the proper procedure.

Here's what he has installed:

Especially I want to get the dragable Stopwatch on the Map-screen. I thought it was part of Ahnenerbe, but I only have the Stopwatch pop out of the right-side Screen and it's not interactive. Which mod do I need for this dragable/interactive Stopwatch, or is it a Key-shortcut or something?
UPDATE: I just figured, he made the dragable Stopwatch himself by editing a few lines of code... Does one of you know which file and what to edit? I'll try to get it out of him on his youtube channel.

Wolfpack345 - This is an amazing Patrol video! you gonna love it, I'm sure!

Thanks for your time reading this!
